Luke Akehurst is a New Labour member who, in 2016, failed to be elected to Labour's National Executive Committee. He is strongly opposed to Leader of the Labour Party Jeremy Corbyn.
On 14 March 2017, the Clarion reported:
- Right-wing ‘Labour First’ activist and proud enemy of the left Luke Akehurst has been firmly routed from his position as membership secretary in Oxford East CLP and replaced by two left wing party activists: Jane Stockton and Dan Iley Williamson – who is also a Councillor and the secretary of the Oxford Momentum branch – with a healthy majority. At the same meeting, which was attended by well over a hundred branch delegates, some other left-wingers were elected to positions on the executive.[1]
